Christopher Watts has been sentenced to life in prison for the murders of his pregnant wife and their two daughters at an emotional hearing where he was torn apart by his distraught father-in-law. Watts, 33, looked down in court in Colorado on Monday morning (center) as his late wife's father Frank Rzucek (left) told him of his disgust at the killings.

He was caught on surveillance cameras carrying the bodies from the family home before burying his wife in a shallow grave and dumping his daughters in containers of crude oil. He accepted a plea deal earlier this month to avoid facing the death penalty. 'I trusted you to take care of them, not kill them,' Rzucek said. 'They also trusted you. The heartless monster and then you take them out like trash. You disgust me.'

This alone is enough to risk making me a social pariah these days, but that’s not even the worst of it. I’m a man who’s actually proud of being a man, and who also likes being MASCULINE.

All northbound lanes and one of two pedestrian crossings at San Ysidro, California were shut down for three hours from 3.15am on Monday for 'port hardening', Customs and Border Protection said in a statement.

On Sunday night there were clashes between the caravan and residents from the Mexican border city, who shouted 'we don't want you here', and demanded that the immigrants turn around and return to their home countries. Secretary of Homeland Security Kirstjen Nielsen on Monday said that the crossing was shut when law enforcement learned about the caravan's plans to rush the border.
